Turn of events

Note: Someone say my story no kick so I edited this post and republished it.

Version 1.2

Due to a turn of events, I decided to put a halt to my previous story and start off a new story. This story is about Country A, B and C.

Country A used to be a normal country, not rich, not poor. He worked hard to be a strong country and after some efforts, managed to see some results. Slowly, A decided to expand itself and build up some population. A needed the citizens to help him build up a powerful kingdom.

Country B was near to Country A and they were good friends. Seeing that Country A was doing well, Country B decided to follow A and asked to alliance with it. Country A agreed and so A helped B to build up it's kingdom. And so, they progress together in peace and supported each other's country when in need. They share the fruits of their labour harmoniously.

Soon, due to some unknown reason, Country C decided to alliance with A and B. Maybe Coutnry C saw that A and B are doing well and hope to share their fruits of labour? Or maybe A and B wanted C's help to build up their nation. The reason will be a mystery forever. Anyway, C decided to join in the Alliance. A and B opened arms to welcome C. The citizens of all 3 countries lived in peace and harmony.

Slowly, Country B and C became good friends. They helped each other alot and think of many ways to make their kingdoms stronger. C has very strong opnions and it always stick to it's view. It wanted it's country to move up regardless of whatsoever. C and A constantly have arguments as A do not see things the same way as C. C felt that A was hindering it's progress.

One day, B and C realised that in order to make their kingdom stronger, they have to get rid of A. Although getting rid of A will means that A will no longer support them, they decided to get rid of it along with all the immigrants from A who are residing in their country.

C, being the strong opinion one, took charge of things and ally with B to attack A. War broke out and with 2 countries against one, A gave up and broke the alliance with the other 2. B and C then forced the citizens of A who are staying in their country to get out. The citizens wanted to go back to Country A but Country A was badly hurt during the war. It can no longer support such a big population. A needs to rebuild it's country to feed it's current population. Finally, these people left Country A, B and C to look for better life in other countries.

My friends

Last few days, Richard asked me to find some friends to come to watch our show and help him to film video. So I asked several people. I do have sincere friends who are willing to come but they have got to work, so might not be able to come. The rest... did not reply me.

I got quite alot of friends, from Poly, attachment, work, schools.... but when I need to find someone to do such a simple thing for 2 hours on a Saturday evening, nobody can help. They give lame excuses like "please don't ask me" or "please let me off".

At least find a better excuse ok.

I told Richard that I can't find anyone. He ridiculed me and said that I don't have any friends. My father says that he can count my friends with one hand. He said everyone else at least invited 2 or 3 friends, a newcomer invited 7 friends but me, as a lead actress, did not manage to find one friend to come.

Haiz.. Sometimes I think, friends are just for entertainment purposes.

My sister had a concert

I think slimming ads are kind of crap. They always use those super models who are never fat before. They are already so skinny since the day they were born.So how do you convince me that your machine or whatever pills can make me slim? Your models are already so slim that they don't have to use your product. Why not you endorse me and take a 'before and after' picture of me after I successfully lost weight? Crappy.

Today, 2 colleagues came to visit my home, just a normal visit. They saw my portfolio which I didn't touch for the past 3 years and they tried to play my Guzheng. Not bad not bad, Mel is working very hard on the guzheng.

After that we watched an episode of SP, SouthPark. An episode called "The Jeffersons". It is super funny lor ok. There is Micheal Jackson in this episode and he keep making funny 'woo hoo' noises.

Throughout my colleague's visit, my sister was having a concert in her room. She sing and sing and sing NON-stop and I mean like NON-STOP. Her Hello kitties took turn to sing a song each amd finally my sister herself decided to sing a song to. As usual she copied me and my mum's opera movements.

Very the BHB can.. She not paiseh one. We were like watching her and she continued to sing like the whole world is her audience.

I am starting to have butterflies in my stomach whenever I thought of 4 March...

The Prince and 7 Dwarfs

Once upon a time, in the land where flowers bloom and river flows, there was a Prince. Everyone call him Prince Charming because he was charming.

One Day, he went hunting in the forest. Soon, he spotted a rabbit and started chasing it.

Prince: Yeeee HA! I will hunt you down, Bunny!

*swish*

Rabbit: Aaaahhh..... (I know rabbit don't make noises, just imagine can?)

Happily, the prince picked up the injured rabbit. The prince was still gloating over his little trophy when he realised that he was lost.

The sun was setting, the birds stopped singing and the prince's horse was almost dozing off.

The prince, being his usual confident self, thought nothing of it. He led his horse and started looking for the way out.

Prince: Tra la la~ *singing*

The prince spotted a light some where between the trees. He was very happy thinking that he can finally ask for directions or ask for help. As he approached the light, he saw that the light was coming from a small cottage.

*knock knock*

Voice: who's there?

Prince: Prince charming.

*Gasp!*

The door open and the prince saw that there were 7 dwarfs. Each of them was of different shape and size. There were small one, fat one, skinny one etc.

The 7 dwarfs were very happy that Prince charming came to their cottage. They have been waiting for him for a long time. 6 of the 7 dwarfs were evil and they knew that if they get the true love and kiss from the prince charming, they will turn into beautiful ladies. However, only one of them is going to finally win the love of the prince. The 7th dwarf is a kind dwarf but with the other 6 evil dwarfs around, will he finally win the love of the prince?

To be continued...

Costumes

Remember that I took photos for the Qian Nv You Hun show before? Sadly, teacher is going to change the costumes. I think the costumes she arranged for us are rather strange. The first one consist a 'Du Dou', a long jacket, skirt and belt. Abit too sexy.. :P

I need to change a few costumes and I saw that one of the costumes is a neon, bright pink sparkling dress with liang pian. I told my mum that I will be so BrIgHt on stage. Fortunately, the other costumes are not so bright and without liang pian.

The water sleeve was changed to a very thin and light material. I can't do anything with this kind of watersleeve as they are too light. They fly away when I try to flip them up.

A bit scared that the costumes are are going to hinder my performance. At the end of the performance, all the liang pian is going to be on the floor..

Mum's Bday at COI

On 11 Feb, Sat, I went to buy a cake at Bugis then go to COI to practice with HXY. At around 7pm, I went to Bugis to collect the cake and we had a celebration at COI.

My mum cutting cake and my sister is wearing my watersleeve. -_- Not bad right, this year my mum had the whole troupe celebrating bday with her~ The one standing on the right of the pic is AH Tian~!

Time: 7pm
Venue: Tampines ChangKat CC

My teacher want us to sell tickets but when she ask me how many I am buying, I told her that I am not buying. She was surprised that I did not invite anyone to come see the show. It is my first time doing a full female lead role and normally the leads will invite more people to come see them.

Reasons are simple:

1) My friends wouldn't come, they are just not interested whether I am lead or not lead.

2) Didn't invite opera friends cuz I am already very stress without their presence.

Among my big circle or friends, less than 5 came to see my performance before. I can't be bothered to ask anymore.

Book Shelf

Finally I got my bookshelf! I am so happy but I realised that 1 bookshelf cannot contain all my books. Haiz....



Ta dah..... Just in case you don't know, the first 2 lower shelves are my opera vcds, the top one are books there are 2 other shelves on top. I love my VCDS~

Tuan Bai

Tuan Bai means a troupe bai nian together. This even is quite important to SL so on 5 Feb, I got rehearsal from 11-1:30pm and after that I went SL.

The lion dance was already over and they were playing some music for the guests. There were quite alot of peoplewhich most of them I had never seen before. I was kind of sloppily dressed cuz I rushed over from my practice. The others were wearing vibrant clothes.

The guest were going to lao yu sheng after a few music pieces.

So many people trying to lao the yu sheng. We only prepared 3 plates of yusheng.

This photo is funny, they were standing so STRAIGHT ok. WHy? hahha

After the tuan bai, The youngsters started chatting and we chatted a bit while I wait for Susan to come, just wanna say hi to her. As usual, she is late. She came when most of the people has left.

She asked me if I want to got ktv with her. Ok lor, since I nothing to do. I asked my mum along. My mum can never resist KTV man..

Reunion

So many things to bl0g! The smell of the stinky fish is gone.. finally.

I am going to blog about our reunion on last Saturday. I am abit not used to it to have another aunt and 3 more cousins suddenly.

Friday night, my grandma stayed overnight in my home and my uncle is supposed to come here to fetch her to my aunt's house for reunion. My grandma didn't know anything and she thought she was going out for visiting.

My uncle came at 10:30am and he drove my grandma while my father drove us.

We reached the block and wanted to go up but there is something wrong with lift. It keeps beeping even though it is not overweight. So, my grandma, my parents and me went up first. We waited by the lift for my uncle to come up. After some time, they finally arrived. The door opened with my uncle's family and 3 other people.

A woman walked out and stretched out her hand to my grandmother and said,"happy new year, mother."

My grandma, abit stunned, didn't know why this woman called her mother but she said "happy new year" anyway. Immediately, I know that the woman is the lost aunt.

Lost aunt," You don't recognise me ah? I am ah geok!"

Grandma," Ah geok ah?"

My grandma abit blur and she was quite expressionless. They then proceeded to my other aunty's house.

I was a bit surprised that my grandma was expressionless. haha I thought she will be very surprised. Instead, she only smiled.

We chatted for some time and came to know that one of my cousin is getting married in March. My grandma might have a great grandchild soon!

Photos~

From left, grandma, lost aunt, another aunt, my mum... They got the same face!! wahahaha..... I still have 3 uncles but they are not in the photo...

After that, we went to lao yu sheng again at a kopitiam nearby.

From left, my new cousin, my father, my uncle. hahaha... New cousin, sounds funny.

This year, I lao yusheng many times leh. I even lao a vegetarian yusheng with Susan. hahah

Chu Er

I am suffocating! My god! The fish my mum is cleaning stinks!!!! I want to vomit....*urgghh..* stanks.

Back to my Chu Er. Chu Er, is irregular, unlike Chu Yi. This year, we went to a relative's house in Hougang. Our relationship is kinda complicate. She is my mother's father's brother's wife. We will call her po po for convenience in this entry. Popo's daughter just gave birth to a cute girl.....

As cute as me!

After that, my father fetch us to go lao yu sheng. Yeah.... Our Yusheng got add extra ingredient which my father prepared himself.

Abalone!!!

Lao ah!

And this ended my Chu Er.

Chu Yi

Chu yi was a fine day with lotsa sunlight and smiles. The birds were singing happily in the trees and my yang liu bloomed fake plum flowers.... All was so nice... :D

Me happily taking photo with my Ying Liu... Then my brother also took one.. before going out to bai nian.

First destination is to my grandmother's house, as usual. She was alone at home as Uncle went Malaysia with his wife. Later, another uncle's family came and we chatted a bit. My sis, as usual, took out all the toys in the cupboard to play. -_-

My grandma

After that, we went to my father's godmother's home, which is my godgrandmother. hee hee, coincidentally, I met all my cousins in the carpark. At my godgrandmother's house, as usual, we gossiped. Forgot to take pic of that.

Then we proceeded to my third aunt's home while my parents went home. They gotta prepare the big dinner at my home at night. So, me and the other cousins went to my third aunt's home.

My cousins~ I think most of my cousins are girls~

My relatives~ They all got the surprised looks cuz I took this photo without warning.

After this, they all went to my home for dinner, chatting and gambling. They gambled most of the time. This kinda ended my Chu Yi. Every Chu Yi every year is the same. The routine is always the same. I think I will write the same thing in my blog next year~

Lost

I am very lost leh, I don't know what I am doing!

Stress... Stresser... Stressest...

Lock

Lock is my poly classmate. Recently, I saw a very funny photo of him in friendster and I decided to post it up here upon getting his permission.

Lock," Idon't go hell, who go hell?"

Hahaha... I cannot control my laughter when I saw this picture! Lock is always full of nonsense..

Long lost aunt

Often on tv, you can see stories of long lost child, long lost sister, long lost father etc. My family too has a long lost relative, my aunt aka my mum's sister.

This long lost sister was an elder sister of my mum and I think the story goes like, she ran away from home when she was still a kid because she was always beaten up by the employer of my grandma. That time my grandma was washing clothes for a woman and that woman always beat up my grandma and my aunties. She scolded my eldest aunt so much that she finally ran away from home. From then on, we never saw her again. At that time, my mum was still a kiddo!

I remembered that I once saw a family photo in my grandma's house and I saw that there were 5 children in the photo instead of 4, so I asked my mum who was the extra one. My mum told me that the extra one was the eldest daughter in the family but she ran away from home years ago. From then on, I know the existence of another aunt.

Already 40 long years went by, my mum never found the sister. Then suddenly, a call came from the second daughter of the family. She informed my mum that they found the eldest sister! Moreover, she was just staying opposite my second aunt!

In fact, it was my mum's brother who found the lost sister. He found her through a friend who can check it from the computer. I wonder which company the friend works in to be able to search.

Anyway, my mum is rather excited to see her again. My second aunt can't wait and since the lost sister is just living opposite her, she went banging on her door.

Tomorrow morning is the day when there will be a gathering for the family.

Oh yah, and my grandma still doesn't know about it! She will get a shock tomorrow when she sees the long lost daughter!

Being an ultimate kpo, I decided to tag along to the gathering tomorrow and checks if anyone cries.... hee hee....
